I really enjoyed this story. Clint and Hawk are great as individuals and fabulous as a couple. I loved that there was a genuine reason for Hawk to love Clint from a distance and that when the opportunity arose to declare his feelings, he did so immediately. I love that Clint despite being hurt, was able to open his heart so quickly to another. Their love was sexy and sweet all at the same time.

I enjoyed Not a Game and highly recommend it. With its distinctly different characters, strong scenes of physical and emotional connection, and sweet HEA, it is a lovely m/m romance with excellent promise for a new series.

A stunning five star read that will make you fall in love with Jason, short temper and all, and with Abe, sweet gorgeous man forever.

Wonderful heartfelt story ... Once I started I couldn't stop. It never fails to amaze me how much depth, feeling and emotion Cardeno C. packs into a story. The characters are always likeable and easy to connect with, the stories flow and while there are issues to muddle through, they aren't filled with an overwhelming amount of angst. ...I loved the deep meaningful conversations smattered throughout the book... Cardeno C. doesn't just tell you what the characters are feeling, you experience it along with them...Lots of love here in many forms, and when you turn the last page you feel good and want to go back and start all over again.

Thank you, Cardeno, for an unbelievably gorgeous book of the kind of love that lasts from cradle to grave.
